Continuous dependence and differentiating solutions of a second order boundary value problem with average value condition

Abstract

Using a few conditions, continuous dependence, and a result regarding smoothness of initial conditions, we show that derivatives of solutions to the second order boundary value problem y = f(x,y,y), a < x < b, satisfying y(x1) = y1, 1(d c)cdy(x)x̣ = y2, where a < x1 < c < d < b and y1,y2 with respect to each of the boundary data x1, y1, y2, c, d solve the associated variational equation with interesting boundary conditions. Of note is the second boundary condition, which is an average value condition.

Keywords
